How Corn is Canned.

The canned corn offered for sale in
stores is preserved in tin cans by those
who make a business of it. The cans
have an opening at one end closed by a
cap, which fits into groove. Great
care is taken to select the best kind of
corn, to gather it at the right time, and
to can it Immediately after it is gathered.
1t should never remain over four hours
before canning. The corn is cut from
the cobs with curved knife made for the
purpose, taking care not to cut too close
t. the cob. The cobs are boiled in
water, just enough to cover them, for an
hour. The cans, with the covers sol
dered on, are filled with corn through the
opening for the cap, pressing it in hard, but
leaving space about fourth of an inch
at the top to allow for expansion. The
liquor obtained by boiling the cobs is
added, sufficient to cover the corn in the
cans, and if not of the sweetest kin l,
teaspoonful of white sugar is added.
The next step is to solder on the caps,
each of which has in its center O small
hole pricked, called the vent After the
caps are soldered on, and the vent still
open, the caps are 'processed." A ket-
tie or vat is provided, containing water,
in which the cans may be boiled for the
required time. The cans of corn are
boiled for two hours, when they are
taken out, one at time, with tongs made
for the purpose, set down with shock
on the soldering table, to remove any
corn that may stop the vent The head
of the can is wiped with cold, wet
cloth, and the vent closed with drop of
solder. The cans are then returned to
the vat, and boiled for four houys.--

meeting place of the two trains The ex-
press messenger. and one OF the postal clerks,
were badly shaken up but not seriously hurt.
None OF the passengers were injured beyond
few bruises. The two engines were badly
wrecked The cause of the accident is
charged up TO the train dispatcher at La
Crosse Owing to a heavy fog the engines
could not be seen until within fifty feet OF
each other, and two late for the engineers or
tirelnen to jump.
The fast day express over the Indianapolis
& St Louis railway, was wrecked Near Fern
station by the breaking of q wheel under the
rear truck of the locomotive. The entire
train, except the sleeping car, left the track,
and the engineer and fireman, named Red

the engine and both killed. The passengers
were violently shaken up, but no one was &C.
riously injured.
Two freight trains collided ON the north
branch of the Pennsylvania railroad, Hear
Monanoqua. The engineers and tiremen
saved their lives by jumping, but three
brakemen were probably fatally injured.
Four of the cars were loaded with giant
powder, which exploded, tearing up the
tracks and demolishing about 25 cars, which
caught fire, and with their contents, were
destroyed. The engines are total wrecks.

COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
COMMON sCHooLs..

If there is; any tax which should be
pSid more cheerfully than another, it is
school tax. The prosperity of any
government or nation depends upon the
education of her people, and the found
alton of all education is laid in the COM
mon schools. 1t is all very well to en-
dow colleges with vast sums of money,
for he who desires finished education
must have the advantage of a collegiate
course, but where do the college stu
dents come from? They are fitted for
higher education in the common schools.
What proportion of the active, business
men of our country are college gradu-
ates?. And yet without an education,
TO some extent at least, man or woman
il lily fitted for the active duties of
successful and useful citizens never saw
tho inside of o. college, but were edu-
Gated, trained and qualified for useful
positions in the common schools of our
country. To the great educational sys-
TEN the common schools are as the roots
of the tree upon whose vitality depends
the growth and prosperity of the mon
arch of the forest.
II is the duty and should be the pleas
nre, of every good citizen who has the
welfare of his country at heart to foster
and support our common schools and
tndeuvor by every legitimate means to
elevate them to that high plane to which
their Importance entities them, and let
no citizen who loves his country ever
have to make the humiliating confession
that he cast vote against the primary
interests of the rising generation.

which prevents strikers from Emporium

The Canadian club.

NEW YORK, April 14.-At the annual meet
ing of the Canadian club, which occurred last
evening at the club house, officers were
elected for the coming year. Erastus Wiman,
who was reelected president of the club. made
an address in which he referred to the pres
ent relations of the United States with Cam
ada. Mr.. Wiman thought that the present
was most critical period in the history of
the connection between the two countries. 1t
was, in his opinion, almost impossible to over
estimate the Importance of the occurrences
OF the next few weeks. He thought that the
object sought by Canada in her strict inforce-
ment of the exactions of obsolete regulations
and the denial to American vessels of the
privileges enjoyed by Canadian vessels the
world over, was the payment by the United
States of an award similar to the Halifax
award. 1t ought to be understood once for
all, that the American people will never grant
any such. There is no way to adjust success
fully the relations of the two countries, Mr..
Wiman thought. but by means of thoroug h
reciprocity between them, such as was sug-
gested by the bill before congress offered BY
Mr.. Butterworth, of Ohio.
